The PPC branch-selection pass, which performs branch relaxation, needs to
account for the padding that might be introduced to satisfy block alignment
requirements. We were assuming that the first block was at offset zero (i.e.
had the alignment of the function itself), but under the ELFv2 ABI, a global
entry function prologue is added to the first block, and it is a
two-instruction sequence (i.e. eight-bytes long). If the function has 16-byte
alignment, the fact that the first block is eight bytes offset from the start
of the function is relevant to calculating where padding will be added in
between later blocks.
Unfortunately, I don't have a small test case.
llvm-svn: 283086
We used to compute the padding contributions to the block sizes during branch
relaxation only at the start of the transformation. As we perform branch
relaxation, we change the sizes of the blocks, and so the amount of inter-block
padding might change. Accordingly, we need to recompute the (alignment-based)
padding in between every iteration on our way toward the fixed point.
Unfortunately, I don't have a test case (and none was provided in the bug
report), and while this obviously seems needed, algorithmically, I don't have
any way of generating a small and/or non-fragile regression test.

Rename AllVRegsAllocated to NoVRegs. This avoids the connotation of
running after register and simply describes that no vregs are used in
a machine function. With that we can simply compute the property and do
not need to dump/parse it in .mir files.

Avoid implicit conversions from MachineInstrBundleIterator to
MachineInstr* in the PowerPC backend, mainly by preferring MachineInstr&
over MachineInstr* when a pointer isn't nullable and using range-based
for loops.
There was one piece of questionable code in PPCInstrInfo::AnalyzeBranch,
where a condition checked a pointer converted from an iterator for
nullptr. Since this case is impossible (moreover, the code above
guarantees that the iterator is valid), I removed the check when I
changed the pointer to a reference.
Despite that case, there should be no functionality change here.
llvm-svn: 276864
This is mostly a mechanical change to make TargetInstrInfo API take
MachineInstr& (instead of MachineInstr* or MachineBasicBlock::iterator)
when the argument is expected to be a valid MachineInstr. This is a
general API improvement.
Although it would be possible to do this one function at a time, that
would demand a quadratic amount of churn since many of these functions
call each other. Instead I've done everything as a block and just
updated what was necessary.
This is mostly mechanical fixes: adding and removing `*` and `&`
operators. The only non-mechanical change is to split
ARMBaseInstrInfo::getOperandLatencyImpl out from
ARMBaseInstrInfo::getOperandLatency. Previously, the latter took a
`MachineInstr*` which it updated to the instruction bundle leader; now,
the latter calls the former either with the same `MachineInstr&` or the
bundle leader.
As a side effect, this removes a bunch of MachineInstr* to
MachineBasicBlock::iterator implicit conversions, a necessary step
toward fixing PR26753.
Note: I updated WebAssembly, Lanai, and AVR (despite being
off-by-default) since it turned out to be easy. I couldn't run tests
for AVR since llc doesn't link with it turned on.

This adds the same checks that were added in r264593 to all

Most modern PowerPC cores prefer that functions and loops start on
16-byte-aligned boundaries (*), so instruct block placement, etc. to make this
happen. The branch selector has also been adjusted so account for the extra
nops that might now be inserted before loop headers.
(*) Some cores actually prefer other alignments for small loops, but that will
be addressed in a follow-up commit.

the MachineFunction easily.

This change enables tracking i1 values in the PowerPC backend using the
condition register bits. These bits can be treated on PowerPC as separate
registers; individual bit operations (and, or, xor, etc.) are supported.
Tracking booleans in CR bits has several advantages:
- Reduction in register pressure (because we no longer need GPRs to store
boolean values).
- Logical operations on booleans can be handled more efficiently; we used to
have to move all results from comparisons into GPRs, perform promoted
logical operations in GPRs, and then move the result back into condition
register bits to be used by conditional branches. This can be very
inefficient, because the throughput of these CR <-> GPR moves have high
latency and low throughput (especially when other associated instructions
are accounted for).
- On the POWER7 and similar cores, we can increase total throughput by using
the CR bits. CR bit operations have a dedicated functional unit.
Most of this is more-or-less mechanical: Adjustments were needed in the
calling-convention code, support was added for spilling/restoring individual
condition-register bits, and conditional branch instruction definitions taking
specific CR bits were added (plus patterns and code for generating bit-level
operations).
This is enabled by default when running at -O2 and higher. For -O0 and -O1,
where the ability to debug is more important, this feature is disabled by
default. Individual CR bits do not have assigned DWARF register numbers,
and storing values in CR bits makes them invisible to the debugger.
It is critical, however, that we don't move i1 values that have been promoted
to larger values (such as those passed as function arguments) into bit
registers only to quickly turn around and move the values back into GPRs (such
as happens when values are returned by functions). A pair of target-specific
DAG combines are added to remove the trunc/extends in:
trunc(binary-ops(binary-ops(zext(x), zext(y)), ...)
and:
zext(binary-ops(binary-ops(trunc(x), trunc(y)), ...)
In short, we only want to use CR bits where some of the i1 values come from
comparisons or are used by conditional branches or selects. To put it another
way, if we can do the entire i1 computation in GPRs, then we probably should
(on the POWER7, the GPR-operation throughput is higher, and for all cores, the
CR <-> GPR moves are expensive).

Although I had added some support for the BDZ/BDNZ branches into the selector
(in r158204), I had not correctly adjusted the condition at the top of the
loop. As a result, these branches were still essentially unsupported.
This fixes PR16086. Unfortunately, any test case would be very large (because
it would need to force the loop backedge to exceed the range of the 16-bit
immediate).

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

This pass is derived from the Hexagon HardwareLoops pass. The only significant enhancement over the Hexagon
pass is that PPCCTRLoops will also attempt to delete the replaced add and compare operations if they are
no longer otherwise used. Also, invalid preheader DebugLoc is not used.

e.g. MO.isMBB() instead of MO.isMachineBasicBlock(). I don't plan on
switching everything over, so new clients should just start using the
shorter names.
Remove old long accessors, switching everything over to use the short
accessor: getMachineBasicBlock() -> getMBB(),
getConstantPoolIndex() -> getIndex(), setMachineBasicBlock -> setMBB(), etc.

The algorithm it used before wasn't 100% correct, we now use an iterative
expansion model. This fixes assembler errors when compiling 403.gcc with
tail merging enabled.
Change the way the branch selector works overall: Now, the isel generates
PPC::BCC instructions (as it used to) directly, and these BCC instructions
are emitted to the output or jitted directly if branches don't need
expansion. Only if branches need expansion are instructions rewritten
and created. This should make branch select faster, and eliminates the
Bxx instructions from the .td file.
